Going In Completely Blind

As it was while me, Wedding Peach, Angel Lily, Angel Daisy, and Angel Salvia, stared in a very surprised manner, at...well...

"Well Peach, Lily, Daisy, Salvia, I would say that things regarding us fighting evil aren't exactly..." I began to say to them, with a sort of side-eyed glance, while still having my attention somewhat focused, on the five newly discovered arrivals.

However, I was then forced to a stop mid-sentence, as several images, then flashed through my mind. It started, with an image of a certain part of Academy City. An open sort of area, if you will. The only thing was, it showed it as though it were somewhat in ruins.

And yet, that wasn't the reason, as to why I currently, had a look of utter, and complete shock, plastered on my face. In fact, the main reason, as to why I was shocked, was who was shown, to have been standing in that open area. More specifically, a certain girl, with all too familiar short brown hair, who looked as though she was glowing a bright white color, and upon a further look at her face. The girl in question, was very much, not looking like herself.

And, just to make things, just a heck of a lot worse. Several more figures, were currently present, in the very same open area. One of which, I immediately recognized as Keiko, who was at the moment, on the ground, on her knees, in a very distraught, and very upset state. And if I had to hazard a pretty good guess. It was more then likely due, to whatever had transpired, involving the white colored figure, who was obviously Misaka.

But, that was not the only image, that was sent flashing through my head. In fact, as I was still looking quite visibly shocked and quite pale, I was then shown another image, of an all too familiar girl with long blonde hair. She was on the ground, a hand clutched around her own throat, and an all too familiar old man, in a lab coat, walking slowly towards her, in a quite intimidating looking manner.

"Okay, so then it would appear that Gensei Kihara...is still very much alive...You know viewers...I am really starting to not like that guy...Because to be quite honest, I am not too happy, that my suspicions regarding the timeline, were like everything else I had predicted up until this point, to be 100% correct...But I guess that is the nature of the beast...as an ability, like that of Kaname Chidori from Full Metal Panic, and her abilities as a member of the Whispered...and as Captain Teletha Testarossa herself said...it can be viewed as a sort of double-edged sword...And no viewers, I am not talking about the Sword Card, when I say that...Mind you, it is technically in fact, a double-edged sword...But I digress, let me at least try and make sense of the current situation...So viewers, with that in mind, back to the story," I thought to myself, while I had had my eyesight, head, and attention, turned slightly to the left of me, to briefly address the viewers. And I had wound up dropping to my knees on the ground, as I still very much had, a look of complete shock, plastered quite visibly across my face.

"Bluebell, are you okay?!" I heard the unmistakable voices, of Peach, Lily, Daisy, and Salvia shout out me. As Wedding Peach, had now knelt down to my level, in an attempt, to try and figure out, what exactly had had me, so much in shock.

And, it was when I had turned my attention towards Wedding Peach, that I was then able, to see the look of sheer worry, on her face. And, with one of my eyes now closed, in a look of somewhat visible pain. I then took a very deep breath, as I then tried to explain to her, what it exactly was, that I had just seen.

"How can I say this sis...well, it would seem, that we currently have ourselves, quite a big problem on our hands," I said, while I tried to bear, a somewhat broken smile of sorts. In a somewhat feeble attempt, to try and let Wedding Peach know, that things were as they should have been.

When in reality, everything, was very much not as it currently seemed.

And, it was while I was still trying to explain to Wedding Peach, the current situation, regarding the images, that had flashed so quickly through my mind. I then got an interesting idea, one that might actually, wind up helping all of us, to both find, as well as solve the currently unfolding, and currently very dire situation.

"Hey Li, do you by any chance have your Lasin Board with you?" I asked, as I turned my attention towards Li, with a now much chipper look on my face.

"Now viewers, I know what you may all be thinking at this very moment, why would I be asking Li Showron, if he still had his Lasin Board, hmm? Well viewers..."

"Yea Bluebell, this is not really the greatest time to be addressing the viewers, given the currently unfolding situation...*Wedding Peach says this while giving Bluebell a pretty obvious expression, as it to let Bluebell know, that now is not the time to be doing a fourth wall break, even though the rules governing fourth wall breaks, are pretty much non-existent*"

"Yea I am with Wedding Peach on this Bluebell. Not really the best time to be doing this...*Zachary says this while giving a very obvious expression as if to let Bluebell know, that now is not exactly the best time to be doing a fourth wall break*"

"Okay seriously Zachary, in the similar words of Jermaine Jones from L.A. Noire, 'who let you in?!'"

"What was that Bluebell, would you care to repeat that statement of yours?!...Because the last time that I checked, there isn't any written or existing rules, governing fourth wall breaks!"

"Look Zachary, I am not saying that there has to be any rules...And to be plainly honest, I have already had to have an earful from Keiko several chapters back regarding this exact topic! So quite frankly, I don't need to hear this from you as well! *Bluebell says all of this with a tickmark now very much present on one side of her head*"

And yet, while this was all going on, none of the three of us, were able to take into account, the growing amount of concerned, and sweatdropped expressions, that were now becoming visible, on everyone else, who was not currently embroiled, in the current conversation, regarding fourth wall breaks. In fact, for those among us, who didn't have fourth wall awareness...

"What are those three arguing about?" Li asked to no one in particular, as he proceeded to look on, at the currently unfolding, and quite bizarre situation regarding Zachary, Bluebell, and Wedding Peach. All while a sweatdrop, was very much present, on one side of his face.

And to be just that much more honest, everyone else that was present, was pretty much feeling almost the exact same way.

"Hey viewers, Keiko here..."

"Are you seriously kidding me right now Keiko?!...Don't you have a battle to attend to right now?!"

"Well Bluebell, are you not sort of indisposed at the current moment?...*Keiko says this, while smiling with eyes closed, and her head tilted to one side in a cute manner*"

"Well...*Bluebell now lets out a sigh in complete defeat, as she knows full well that Keiko is right with every bit of that statement*...Okay alright Keiko...so why don't you do the honors then."

"With pleasure Bluebell...So viewers, see you all in the next chapter, okay?...*Keiko says this while once again smiling with eyes closed, and her head tilted to one side in a cute manner*"
